I am licensed in Alaska and Kentucky with 15 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, coping with addictions, motivation, self esteem, and confidence, & depression. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. Life throws many difficult things t us. Things that cause us to doubt ourselves or to lose faith in ourselves. It's a hard road to travel but you dont have to do it alone. I am here to support & empower you in that journey.
